Push and Pull Procedure

To mitigate jet blast hazards, ALL aircraft parked at stands S43–S45, S52–S55 and 171-172 are required to pull forward to intermediate holding points AW1 or AE2 after pushback. ATC will determine which intermediate holding point to use depending on the traffic situation.

🎧 FINNAIR 121, START-UP AND PUSH BACK APPROVED, FACING NORTH-WEST. AFTER PUSH BACK TOW FORWARD TO AW1
👨‍✈️ START-UP AND PUSH BACK APPROVED. AFTER PUSHBACK TOW FORWARD TO AW1, FINNAIR 121

If the pilot is unable to tow forward after push back, ATC may revert to normal push back procedures without tow instructions.

Parking

  • Parking will happen primarily on stands W48 and 905A.
  • When Remote 8 is not in use for de-icing, Code-F aircraft may also be parked on stand 815 or on intermediate holding point VS1.
  • When runway 15/33 is not in use, Code-F aircraft may also be parked on:
    • Intermediate holding point Y7 facing nort-west. Taxi in via Runway 15 and YL.
    • Intermediate holding point Y8 facing south-east. Taxi out via YL and Runway 33. Runway 22L shall be closed until Code-F aircraft has vacated Runway 15 due to absence of Runway 22L holding point markings on runway 15.

Arriving Code-F aircraft waiting for a parking position may need to absorb delay on an intermediate holding point on Taxiway Z until the parking stand is available. Other traffic may use taxiway AV instead of Z to get around the aircraft.
